Abstract

Case Report Case Reports Oral carcinoma radiotherapy reservoir denture salivary substitute xerostomia
Complete dentures are poorly tolerated in patients with xerostomia. A salivary reservoir can be incorporated into a denture that provides slow, sustained, and continuous release of salivary substitute. This article describes a simple, cost‐effective, and innovative technique of fabrication and designing of functional maxillary salivary reservoir complete denture.
